A crisis has been reached in the affairs
of France. President Grevy's resignation
was expected by the Chamber of Deputies
yesterday, and when it was not presented
there was a scene of excitement in the
Chamber, which was followed by great ex-
element and rev dictionary demonstrations
in the city. President Grevy has promised
to make known his decision to the Chamber
to-day. 1t is to be hoped that peace Will be
maintained in France, and thatslaw and
order will prevail, but it looks little as if
the nation were entering upon troublous
times. The failure of President Grevy to
send his resignation to the Chamber yester-

legitimate functions. Those which the Fire

The attempt to build the Panama canal
has, it is said, already resulted in the loss of
10000 lives This calls attention in forci-
BILE way to the fact that the building of this
canal is a very dangerous piece of work
not from any particular bodily risk, but
because of the unhealthfulneSs of the coun-
try through which it is built. The natives
themselves cannot escape the miasmatic in
fluences following digging Of canals or the
throwing up of railroad embankments, and
certainly if this be true, the death rate must
be enormous among unacclimated workmen.
To give an instance of this, it
is said, Though the report may be
exaggerated that when the Panama rail-
road was being constructed, for every
sleeper laid there was u human life given.
The canal company has been trying TO re-
duce the death rate by employing ex-
perienced physicians and providing hospi-
tails, but the malaria still has the upper
hand. There are few things in this world
that can beat malaria when the start is a
fair one. Chinese coolies and negroes from
Jamaica are alike unable to Withstand its
deadly influence, and the canal builders will
have to look elsewhere to find human con-
stitution proof against it.

st. John, who was the Prohibition candi-
date for President in 'S4, does not claim that
he personally defeated Blaine, but says the
defeat was caused by cold water-sent di-
rectly by Providence in the shape of rain
storm on election day. Some think that
Burchard did the business and others lay it
to Coukling, while not few give Cleveland
credit for it. At all events, the country has
reason to be grateful.

New York has been trying compulsory
education, and has found it failure The
Superintendent of Public Instruction ac-
counts for this by saying that in the first
place the schools are full, and in the second
place the trustees elected to supervise them
refuse to be turned into constables for the
purpose of apprehending delinquent chill
dren. This last will be more readily under
stood when it is stated that the trustees
serve without compensation. It seems
strange that State like New York should
enact a law and fail to provide for its en-
forcement Enough rooms for pupils and
reasonable pay for trustees would give the
law fair showing.

Ex.Gov. CASTOR, Ct Massachusetts, was
importuned to run for Mayor of Boston on
the citizens ticket. When he declined on
account of the demands of business, he
omitted one of the most potent reasons for
such action. No Democrat can afford TO
embark in movement that is opposed to
his party organization. This is probably
what Gov. CASTOR meant.

Flooding Ways Best.

The latest Napoleon of finance in New
/ York is Mr.. Latimer E. Jones. His career
is very much like those of other Napoleons
who preceded him, except that he didn't
gamble in Wall street and overstepped the
line between honesty and dishonesty little
more boldly, though no more really, than
most of them ventured TO do. He was a
young man, and his habits and associations
were all they should have been. He did not
drink or use tobacco or indulge in any of
the small vices of young men.
But he had one failing, which is only too
common IN this day and generation-he was
greedy for sudden wealth He is reported
to have said at the beginning of his business
career that 1.-The only way to make money is
to scheme, to organize new companies and
to 90 into all sorts of things till you strike
something rich" And he proceeded to put
this theory in practice. He became the head
of a great lumber company and of half
a dozen other enterprises and being
a plausible fellow of good address, he sue.
ceeded III inspiring confidence in business
men who ought to have known better. But
his schemes did not turn out as he wished
them to do, and to keep them going he was
obliged to raise large sums of money. He
did so honestly at first, but as his credit be-
came exhausted he resorted to fraud, and
when the final crash came several hundred
thousand dollars of forged paper was in
the hands of innocent people. He is in Jail,
on the way to Sing Sing.
This young fellows career is reverted to
not because it is singular, but because in it
he was actuated by spirit entirely too
common among young men of the day.
Nothing is more frequent on the lips of the
more ambitious young men than remarks
perfectly in consonance with that attributed
to young Jones. Dazzled by the wonderful
success which exceptional circumstances
have enabled a certain number Of specula-
tors and financial exploiters to achieve, they
are impatient of slow methods of accumula-
ton which involve self-sacrifice, labor, pa
thence, and want their fortunes and their
youth at the same time
The young man of this class, when of large
natural capacity, is apt to be a danger to
both himself and the community. He looks
on business life as lottery, where money
and the influence wealth and station give
are the results of lucky hits, most apt to fall
to the boldest player His influence is per-
nicious, because it discredits intelligent in
dustry, perseverance and self-denial, which
will always earn what he seeks to win, and
make the possessor filter to use them.
1t is not intended to intimate that all
young men who entertain the views COM
planned of would on occasion forge notes, as
did Jones. Most of them become wiser
with experience and discard views which
they learn were false. Those who cling to
them, however, are apt at some period in
their career to be subjected to temptation,
when the greed for easily-acquired wealth
may bear down the sense of right.

At the centennial celebration of the
adoption of the constitution in indie
pendence square, Philadelphia, Satur-
day, Sept. Il, President Cleveland de
livered Il ringing speech which was
grandly patriotic and truly American
in sentiment lie concluded with the
following burning words, which can
not be too strongly and deeply i'm
pressed upon the minds and hearts of
the millions of American freemen:
AS we look down the past century
to the origin of our constitution, as
We contemplate its trials and its tri
umphs. rs we realize how completely
the principles upon which it is based
have met every national peril and ey-
cry national need, how deyoutly should
we confess with Franklin, God gov
ernS the affairs of men, and how sol
emn should be the reflection that to
our hands is committed the ark of the
peoples covenant. and that ours is the
duty to shield it from impious hands.
We receive it sealed with the test of a
century. 1t has been found sufficient
in the past, and in all the future years
it will be found sufficient if the Amer
lean people are true 10 their sacred
trust. Another centennial day will
come, and millions yet unborn will in
quire concerning our stewardship and
the safety of their constitution. God
giant that they may find it unimpaired;
and as we rejoice in the patriotism and
devotion of those who lived hundred
years ago, So may Others who follow
us rejoice in our fidelity and in our
jealous love for constitutional liberty"

II seems rather funny to find the
Lincoln boomers complacently relying
upon the hoped-for success of Col.
Fred Grant as the republican candi-
date for secretary of state in New
York to advance the interests of their
candidate, lion. Robert T. Lincoln,
for president of the United States.
The election of Fred in New York
might he the means of securing for
Bob the second place on the national
ticket next year; but hardly the first.
Why, if Col. Fred should succeed in
carrying the empire state, he would be
the most available candidate for pres
ident himself; and his friends would
doubtless demand that he be placed at
the head Of the ticket, They would
call to mind the greater lincoln's ia
vorite maxim, that lit isn't safe to
swap horses while crossing stream, :
and the Lincoln boomers would be
compelled to admit the force of the
argument.

The ST. Paul Pioneer Press.
Several journals of high protective
tariff affections are relating in lugu-
Drious tone that "the amount of wool
produced in this country is growing
smaller, while the amount of wool inn
ported from foreign countries is steadi-
ly increasing" This certainly, is not
high enough Ii importations threaten
to wipe out our wool growing industry
when wool is protected by duty OF
ten cents pound, perhaps 1t would be
well to try the effect of reducing the
duty.

The republicans of New York are
running Col Fred Grant for Secretary
of State The nomination is in itself
a confession Of weakness. 1t is a
virtual admission that the republican
party leaders realize that their case is
a desperate one, and have nominated
the son Of the great general in the hope
that the kindly sentiment and rever-
ence attached to the memory of the
father will be strong enough to Sc
cure success for the party ticket at the
polls in November 1t is forlorn
hope however; and it is more than
likely that a democrat will be elected.

The Chicago Inter Ocean takes its
contemporary, the Tribune, to task
for advocating a reduction of import
duties while fayoring the election Of
James G. Blaine, the most perfect rep
resentatiye of high protection, to the
presidency. 1t is certainly very in
consistent for The Tribune to entertain
sensible tariff views with such a per
verse preference as to candidates. 1t
would be better for The Tribune to be
right in regard to both principle and
candidate; but if it cannot be right as
to both, it would be less ridiculous for
TO be wrong in regard to both, as is The
Inter Ocean.
